City Paper Review: Tame Impala

Hi,

Two good shows in Philly in the past few days: Tame Impala on Sunday and Delorean on Monday. Fortunately, City Paper sent me to both to review them and take some pictures. Here's the Tame Impala review. Here's a few pictures too:

The Morning Benders and Andrea Estella of Twin Sister cover Fleetwood Mac's "Dreams"

What? Awesome.

It's a Leonard Cohen sort of day.

Beautiful November day in Philadelphia. Been listening to Cohen today. I think it fits if you're feeling calm. Try these on:

More new Girls pt. 2

Well God, I can't seem to keep up with all the stuff that's spilling into the magical chasms of the interweb. Here's a track called "Carolina", the final track on the upcoming Girls EP Broken Dreams Club. Its an interesting track for Girls, as it sprawls into an 8 minute psychedelic jam whereas most Girls songs are just well constructed pop songs. Check it out:

GIRLS // Carolina by TheArtOf...

Checked it? Ok good. Now, if you can't wait for the November 22nd release of it, I will say Broken Dreams Club has leaked and is pretty easy to find if that's what yer into. Hope you enjoy.
